(1)  The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
     of Operations which follows these notes contains additional information on
     the results of operations and the financial position of the company. Those
     comments should be read in conjunction with these notes. The company's
     annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 3, 1995 includes
     additional information about the company, its operations, and its financial
     position, and should be read in conjunction with this quarterly report on
     Form 10-Q.
 
(2)  The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
     results to be expected for the full fiscal year due to the seasonal nature
     of the company's business. Certain prior year amounts have been
     reclassified in order to conform with the fiscal 1996 presentation.
 
(3)  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and
     recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results of
     operations of these interim periods have been included.
 
(4)  The composition of inventories at the balance sheet dates was as follows:

(5)  The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for federal, state,
     U.S. possessions and foreign income taxes. The company operates in an
     international environment with significant operations in various locations
     outside the United States. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is
     a composite rate reflecting the earnings in the various locations and the
     applicable tax rates.
 
(6)  On September 5, 1995, the company amended the line of credit agreements
     which support its domestic commercial paper programs. Total availability
     under the domestic commercial paper programs is $2.0 billion, compared to
     $2.3 billion under the fiscal 1995 programs.
 
     The company amended the line of credit agreements which support the $1.6
     billion domestic commercial paper program. The amended line of credit
     agreements total $1.6 billion, of which $800 million expires on September
     3, 1996 unless otherwise extended and the remaining $800 million expires in
     September 2000. As a result, $800 million of the $1.6 billion domestic
     commercial paper outstanding is classified as long-term debt as of August
     2, 1995. As of May 3, 1995, $800 million of domestic commercial paper was
     classified as long-term debt.
 
     The company also amended the $700 million line of credit agreement which
     supported its short-term privately placed commercial paper program. This
     program initially had been used to finance the acquisition of the North
     American pet food businesses of the Quaker Oats Company. The amended line
     of credit agreement provides for borrowings of up to $400 million and
     expires on September 3, 1996. A portion of the fiscal 1995 privately placed
     commercial paper had previously been repaid through the issuance of
     long-term debt in April 1995.
 
(7)  On September 12, 1995, the company's board of directors authorized a
     three-for-two stock split. The board established October 3, 1995 as the
     record date for the stock split, with certificate distribution scheduled
     for November 9, 1995. There will be no adjustment in the stock's par value
     or the total number of authorized common shares.

     Also on September 12, 1995, the company's board of directors raised the
     quarterly dividend on the company's common stock to $0.3975 per share from
     $0.36 per share, for an indicated annual rate of $1.59 per share (pre-split
     basis). The dividend applies to common shares held before the three-for-two
     stock split and will be paid on October 10, 1995 to shareholders of record
     at the close of business on September 22, 1995.
 
(8)  Per share data does not reflect the three-for-two stock split of the
     company's common stock to be effective October 3, 1995. Net income per
     share and dividends per share for the three months ended August 2, 1995,
     adjusted to reflect the stock split, would be $0.46 and $0.24,
     respectively. The corresponding amounts for the three months ended July 27,
     1994 would be $0.41 and $0.22, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
              THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 2, 1995 AND JULY 27, 1994
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
     For the three months ended August 2, 1995, sales increased $358.2 million
or 21% to $2,094.3 million from $1,736.1 million recorded for the same period a
year ago. The sales increase came primarily from volume gains of 5%, price
increases of 1%, acquisitions, net of divestitures of 12% and favorable effects
of foreign exchange translation rates of 3%.
 
     Volume increases were noted in StarKist tuna, Ore-Ida foodservice potatoes,
Heinz baby food, pasta, Ore-Ida Bagel Bites, Tegel chicken, coated products,
frozen vegetables, Heinz ketchup and bakery products.
 
     Price increases in single-serve condiments, Heinz ketchup and baby food
were partially offset by price decreases in StarKist tuna and sauces/pastes.
 
     Contributing to the sales dollar increase were the following fiscal 1995
acquisitions: the North American pet food businesses of the Quaker Oats Company
(the "Pet Food Business"); The All American Gourmet Company; the Farley's infant
foods and adult nutrition business; and the Family Products Division of Glaxo
India. During the first quarter of fiscal 1996, the company acquired a majority
interest in PMV/Zabreh, a producer of infant formulas and dairy products located
in Zabreh, Moravia, Czech Republic. PMV/Zabreh holds leading market shares in
both the Czech and Slovak Republics for infant formula, sold through pharmacies
under the Sunar and Feminar brand names. The company also increased its
investment to 97% of Kecskemeti Konzervgyar R.T., a processor of jarred baby
foods and juices in Kecskemet, Hungary.
 
     Gross profit increased $139.7 million to $774.3 million from $634.6 million
a year ago. The ratio of gross profit to sales increased to 37.0% from 36.6%.
The current year's gross profit ratio was favorably impacted by cost reductions
and profit mix. The prior year's gross profit ratio was negatively impacted by
an unfavorable profit mix related to certain acquisitions and divestitures and
higher foodservice sales.
 
     Operating income increased $51.7 million or 18% to $338.5 million from
$286.8 million for the same period last year. The increase in operating income
was primarily due to the increase in gross profit partially offset by increased
marketing expenses; higher selling and distribution expenses related to
increased volume; and higher general and administrative expenses associated with
acquisitions.
 
     Net interest expense increased $25.1 million to $56.4 million from $31.3
million in the first quarter a year ago mainly due to higher borrowings
resulting from acquisitions and higher short-term interest rates.
 
     Net income for the current quarter was $174.5 million compared to $154.7
million for the same period last year and earnings per share was $0.70 compared
to $0.62. The effective tax rate for the first quarter increased to 37.8% from
37.5%.
 
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL POSITION
 
     Cash provided by operating activities totaled $91.9 million for the three
month period ended August 2, 1995 compared to $105.8 million last year. The
decrease in cash provided by operations is mainly due to increased working
capital needs.
 
     Cash used for investing activities required $69.4 million compared to
$278.1 million last year. Cash used for acquisitions in the current quarter
totaled $46.3 million, primarily due to the
 
                                       8
<PAGE>
purchase of PMV/Zabreh in the Czech Republic and the additional investment in
Kecskemeti Konzervgyar R.T. in Hungary. Acquisitions in the prior year's first
quarter totaled $209.4 million and included Farley's infant foods and adult
nutrition business; the Borden Foodservice Group; DEGA, a foodservice products
company located in Italy; and other smaller acquisitions. Investments in tax
benefits provided $51.8 million compared to $5.3 million a year ago, due mainly
to the company's sale of certain domestic investments. Purchases of property,
plant and equipment totaled $88.8 million compared to $60.6 million a year ago.
 
     Cash used for financing activities required $24.2 million for the three
months ended August 2, 1995 compared to providing $160.7 million a year ago. Net
proceeds on short-term debt provided $56.1 million in the current period versus
$315.5 million in the prior year's comparable period. Payments on long-term debt
totaled $32.8 million for the current period compared to $1.6 million last year.
During the three months ended August 2, 1995, treasury stock purchases totaled
$6.5 million (149,400 shares) versus $89.1 million in the prior year's first
quarter. Dividend payments totaled $88.1 million compared to $81.9 million a
year ago.
 
     On September 5, 1995, the company amended the line of credit agreements
which support its domestic commercial paper programs. Total availability under
the domestic commercial paper programs is $2.0 billion, compared to $2.3 billion
under the fiscal 1995 programs.
 
     The company amended the line of credit agreements which support the $1.6
billion domestic commercial paper program. The amended line of credit agreements
total $1.6 billion, of which $800 million expires on September 3, 1996 unless
otherwise extended and the remaining $800 million expires in September 2000. As
a result, $800 million of the $1.6 billion domestic commercial paper outstanding
is classified as long-term debt as of August 2, 1995. As of May 3, 1995, $800
million of domestic commercial paper was classified as long-term debt.
 
     The company also amended the $700 million line of credit agreement which
supported its short-term privately placed commercial paper program. This program
initially had been used to finance the acquisition of the Pet Food Business. The
amended line of credit agreement provides for borrowings of up to $400 million
and expires on September 3, 1996. A portion of the fiscal 1995 privately placed
commercial paper had previously been repaid through the issuance of long-term
debt in April 1995.
 
     On September 12, 1995, the company's board of directors authorized a
three-for-two stock split. The board established October 3, 1995 as the record
date for the stock split, with certificate distribution scheduled for November
9, 1995. There will be no adjustment in the stock's par value or the total
number of authorized common shares.
 
     Also on September 12, 1995, the company's board of directors raised the
quarterly dividend on the company's common stock to $0.3975 per share from $0.36
per share, for an indicated annual rate of $1.59 per share (pre-split basis).
The dividend applies to common shares held before the three-for-two stock split
and will be paid on October 10, 1995 to shareholders of record at the close of
business on September 22, 1995.
 
     The company's financial position continues to remain strong, enabling it to
meet cash requirements for operations, capital expansion programs and dividends
to shareholders.
 
OTHER MATTERS
 
     On August 24, 1995 and September 7, 1995, the Howard Heinz Endowment, the
Vira I. Heinz Endowment, the Heinz Family Foundation and certain Heinz family
trusts sold a total of 14,518,100 shares of the company's common stock in an
underwritten secondary offering. The secondary offering was priced at $42.375
per share. The company did not sell any shares in the offering and did not
receive any of the proceeds.

     On September 12, 1995, the Weight Watchers Food Company announced plans to
close The All American Gourmet plant in Atlanta, GA. Operations will be phased
out by the end of January 1996. The facility's dinner and entree production
lines will be consolidated with other company facilities. This closure is part
of the company's strategy to combine recent acquisitions with existing
operations. The employee severance and exit costs related to this closure had
previously been provided for in the year end 1995 balance sheet as "other
accrued liabilities."
